What are the benefits students receive through Catholic higher education compared to secular education? This is the question Jason King, the Beirne Chair and director of the Center for Catholic Studies at St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, explored in a recent study. He recently spoke with OSV News’ Charles Camosy about the non-financial benefits they found that Catholic higher education had on students.
I never tire of revisiting certain authors and books, especially C.S. Lewis and his Chronicles of Narnia. In fact, the older I get, the more I find to love in these books. It makes me appreciate the dedication that Lewis wrote for the first book, “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,” in which he tells his goddaughter that “someday you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”
